Enable them all year, and possibly snowball arena aswell. (?)


Disable gamer points/victory tokens/leaderboards and highscores/anything else if you want, dont really care. Just. Want. Dragon arena.

You could just organize it within your guild like the way mentioned here: http://www.wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Dragon_Arena#Trivia
It'd probably be 10x more fun since you wouldn't be pugging.

What about the Dragon Nest game? I like playing that despite rarely ever seeing other people play it.

DA will be superior to dodgeball 90% of the time because dodgeball is hard to organize, and when it gets like that you end up playing with morons who bring lightning hammer or shatterstone or some crap like that.

I want more Dragon Arena <333 /signed...Honestly, what's wrong with them keeping them open now? Most titles are lackluster in being prestigious anymore, these just prove you spend a lot of time over the weekend when they are open. These minigames gives you something to do outside the usual PvP or PvE.

Yeah... I mean... your guild mates are such jerks right? (if you answered yes to that... find a better guild).

They're usually just dicking around. But if you ever even played dodgeball and tried to organize it versus dragon arena, we wouldn't be having this convo. Please know what your posting about, and dont /notsign to be cool/different.

Rewards.


GvG remains special, but things like tournaments and ladders make it more so. The weekend events tend to bring influxes of people to certain parts of GW, be it RA, green farming, or vanquishing.

So if you have holidays allow victory tokens and certain prizes at these games, more people will join in on those days.

But for the rest of the time, we can keep the games running. Maybe you just gain faction from DA, maybe there is no super special drop going on, who cares? It's fun. And fun doesn't have to be only once a year to be special.

So, I hereby sign. Bring on the minigames, bring on the new maps for minigames, bring on the support for minigames. Just bring on the minigames!

I do know what I am talking about. I was in the alliance with the guild that INVENTED dogdeball (Wee Free Men).
If you REALLY want to play it year round, then you can already.

/notsigned. Something kinda loses its "special" feel to it when it's available all the time. That, to me, is what makes Dragon Arena fun instead of a poor-man's PvP arena...and the rewards are simply a joke.

But *I* can't play my <3 Costume Brawl so please AN, put it in.
And no, telling people to run certain builds and equipment in RA doesn't count.

Yeah, people who force you to play all the time are bad. Avoid them.
The way I see it, there are 2 possibilities.
a) AN introduces snow ball arena, dragon arena, costume brawl etc and I play it when I want and you don't play it if you don't.
b) AN does not introduce the above and I don't play when I want and you don't play even if you had the urge.

Gee, what's the best solution here?

Dodgeball should become a scrimmage template for GvG for fun.

Past that, I'm not sure. I'm split between wanting to play them all year for no reward and them losing their special holiday nature.
